Fraunces Tavern Museum’s mission is to preserve and interpret the history of the American Revolutionary era through public education. This mission is fulfilled through the interpretation and preservation of the Museum's collections, landmarked buildings, and varied public programs that serve the community.Located at 54 Pearl Street, the Museum is comprised of nine galleries, two of which are period rooms, where visitors can explore a vast collection of more than 8,000 artifacts from or relating to the American Revolutionary era. Highlights include the memoirs of Benjamin Tallmadge, personal correspondence of George Washington, and a collection of paintings by John Ward Dunsmore that highlight scenes, battles, and heroes of the War for Independence. Visitors can also unfold the history of the American Flag and stand in our historic Long Room; the famous site of George Washingnton’s farewell to his officers on December 4th, 1783. Constructed around 1719, the building that would become Fraunces Tavern was built as an elegant residence by merchant Stephen Delancey. In 1762, Samuel Fraunces bought the building and transformed it into a tavern that so on became one of the most popular meeting places in a city that was a political hotbed of thought and action. Once war began and the Continental Army lost possession of the City, Loyalist forces occupied the tavern until peace was declared in 1783. On December 4th, 1783, nine days after the British evacuation, George Washington delivered his emotional farewell to his officers in the second floor Long Room. From 1785 to 1788, the Tavern held the first offices for the Departments of Foreign Affairs, War, and Treasury. In the 1800s, the building underwent several structural changes, which included a series of fires. Sons of the RevolutionTM in the State of New York, Inc. took ownership in 1904 and completed a conjectural restoration to open Fraunces Tavern Museum & Restaurant by 1907. The block was designated in 197

Its roots extend back to 1823 and the founding of the brooklyn Apprentices' Library to educate young tradesmen (Walt Whitman would later become one of its librarians). The Brooklyn Museum was conceived as the focal point of a planned cultural, recreational, and educational district for the burgeoning city of Brooklyn. Although the scope of that envisioned complex of parks, gardens, and buildings changed after the once-independent Brooklyn was absorbed into New York City in 1898, many features of the plan were eventually realized and are reflected in what can be seen today. In recent years, the Museum has focused on redesigning its galleries and reinstalling its major collections to make them more accessible to the public. Flowing spaces, vivid wall colors, dramatic graphic elements, and multimedia components feature in many of these reconfigured galleries.The collections of American painting and sculpture, with significant additions from Spanish colonial and Native American art, were reorganized in 2001 to form the long-term installation “American Identities: A New Look” within completely reconceived gallery spaces.With a mission to create inspiring encounters with art that expand the ways we see ourselves, the world and its possibilities, visiting this museum is an educational and cultural experience not to be missed!

Come see the magnificent Woolworth Building, a US National Historic Landmark, on this informative guided tour. This world-famous space was granted New York City Landmark status in 1983 but has been long closed to the public. Explore the lobby, designed by the renowned architect Cass Gilbert, and marvel at the grand entrance to what was the tallest building in the world for 17 years. Dubbed “the Cathedral of Commerce," this historic landmark is unrivaled by any other on the North American continent for its scale, craftsmanship, beauty and sense of humor.
The Woolworth Building, designed by architect Cass Gilbert, was the tallest in the world from 1913 to 1930. President Woodrow Wilson flipped a switch in the White House to turn on the building’s lights on its opening night 101 years ago. Hailed by architectural critics as an engineering marvel, it became instantly famous world-wide and helped to promote Frank Woolworth’s chain of 5 and 10 cent stores. Its extraordinary lobby is like no other space in North America, showcasing its grand proportions with splendid stained glass, spectacular mosaics, gorgeous murals and amusing sculptural details. In 1916, the Reverend S. Parkes Cadman called the Woolworth Building the “Cathedral of Commerce” as part of an effort to promote it as an ethical white-collar workplace. During the vibrant economy of the 1920s, the skyscraper’s Gothic design was viewed at home and abroad as a symbol of American material success. To this day, it evokes the expansive mood of the early 20th century, when New York served as the nation’s most prosperous port and gateway for the commerce of the world. Choose a 30-minute, 1-hour or 1.5-hour tour depending on how extensively you want to experience this famous historic landmark.

The New-York Historical Society was established in 1804 as New York’s first museum. Its eleven founders all lived through the turbulent years of the American Revolution and the British occupation of New York. These men believed that New York’s citizens needed to take decisive action to preserve eyewitness evidence of their own historical moment, which they recognized as important, fearing “dust and obscurity” would be the inevitable fate of accounts and artifacts if left in the hands of private individuals. “Without the aid of original records and authentic documents,” they declared, “history will be nothing more than a well-combined series of ingenious conjectures and amusing fables.” It is in this tradition that New-York Historical has moved forward into the 21st century, offering to visitors a vast collection of art, objects, artifacts and documents to show history’s enduring importance and its usefulness in finding explanations, causes, and insights.As the oldest museum in New York City—predating even the founding of the Metropolitan Museum of Art by nearly seventy years—our Museum is home to some of the city’s and nation’s beloved artworks, including those by Thomas Cole, Rembrandt Peale, and Gilbert Stuart, as well as all 435 of John James Audubon’s extant preparatory watercolors for Birds of America. Newly designed in 2017, the Henry Luce III Center for the Study of American Culture on our reimagined fourth floor offers visitors an interactive exploration of new and historic objects from our collection, such as George Washington’s camp bed from Valley Forge, the 1863 draft wheel used in the lottery that set off the Civil War Draft Riots, and American folk art from the legendary collection of sculptor Elie Nadelman, as well as objects from the legendary tennis player and equal rights activist Billie Jean King and 100 glistening Tiffany Lamps—one of the world’s largest collections of Tiffany glasswork—on view in our Center for Women’s History.

Central Park's drives provide a challenging course for in-line skating. Circling the entire Park, the drives provide three long-distance routes — 6.1 miles, 5.2 miles or 1.7 miles, or shorter distances if you cross the Park at a number of scenic locations.One can skate in the park at any time while it's open, and no permit is needed. The most optimal times are when the drives are closed to traffic, Monday through Friday 10am to 3pm, and 7pm to 10pm, and weekends from 7pm Friday to 6am Monday. We do not recommend using the Park drives when they are open to traffic. Note that Central Park is officially closed from 1am to 6am.The law requires that children under 14 years of age wear helmets, and the 20 mph speed limit is strictly enforced on the drives.

From the 1840’s through 1920’s, learn about the earlier era of street gangs of NYC and about the evolution from small packs of immigrant thugs with tightly knit loyalties to an evolved, corporate style American syndicate. Mulberry Street, from Chinatown to Little Italy, was the spot where the notorious gangsters in New York came up, from the former Five Points, New York’s most notorious slum, to the narrow alleys Chinatown’s “Bloody Angle.” In Little Italy’s Historic District we learn the ruthless tactics of the first Mafia bosses of New York, the proud efforts of NYPD Lieutenant Joe Petrosino‘s fight against these thugs. Organized Crime as we know it was born on these streets.The tour starts promptly at 11am, Saturdays and Sundays at the Southwest corner of Columbus Park (Mulberry & Worth), near the basketball courts, but the story begins at the roots of gang activity in New York City in what used to be its most notorious slum: The Five Points. The history from the 1840s to the 1890s focuses on how the Irish immigrant class rose from the lowest rung of the city's social strata to powerful figures in the police & fire departments and in New York's corrupt political circles. The 1890's is where the Italian and Chinese influence began. A 20-minute walk through New York's old Chinatown is centered around the Tong Wars of the 1890's and the rise of the Chinatown criminal and political class which still run the Chinatowns of New York Today. From there, we transition into the ever-shrinking Little Italy where the story of the first Mafiosi made their way to American streets and established numerous powerful rackets including extortion (or "protection"), prostitution, Union & Labor influence and manipulation and counterfeit cash rings. This era was also the start of New York's fight against the rising Sicilian criminal class, embodied by one unflinching crusader and New York's first Italian-American police officer: Lieutenant Joe Petrosino Amidst this

This 2.5 hour walking tour around the Midtown Manhattan shows-and-tells the fascinating stories of holdouts—the intriguing side effect of Manhattan's pressure cooker real estate industry: when a property owner (or lease holder) refused to sell to a developer, forced them to rework their plans, and forever changed the city streetscape. Stories, like the elderly lady who never knew any other home; or the poker player-like landlord who overplayed his hand; or the restauranteur whose long term lease (justifiably) demanded budget-busting sums, all add a human dimension to these transactional anomalies. And personal stories that were otherwise lost, are awesomely amplified by the everlasting impression left behind: seemingly ill-planned entrances for skyscrapers, odd shaped buildings, 20-story tall notches in office towers, are just some of the 16 examples of holdouts we'll see.This tour is based on the book, Holdouts!

The streets of SoHo contain a fashionable world class city of gorgeous cast iron buildings dating from the 1850s, 60s, and 70s when Broadway was one long promenade of fine shops, theaters and hotels. By the 1880s, 90s, and 00s that fashionable city was overrun with business manufacturing and industry. And those buildings are just as beautiful! The history that created the streetwalls of SoHo was a streaming, intergenerational, decades-long onslought of a bygone suburbia overrun by fine shops, theaters, hotels and museums, and that in turn overrun by buildings for warehousing, manufacturing and industry. Which beaufiful, ornament and gargoyle-encrusted buildings date from the era of Broadway as promenade, and which are from an era when no fashionable lady would be caught below Bleecker Street, is the fun and wholly counter-intuitive part of this walking tour.ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this productPass By: SoHo, New York City, New YorkThis tour looks at the incredible architecture that gleems on these NYC blocks; from cast iron to steel frame, the most beautiful buildings from past industrial ages bedeck these blocks today and we look at them in detail.

While it’s very much part of the city today, a great many of the buildings on the Upper West Side, among them gorgeous brownstones and beaux arts apartment-hotels, were built when the area was a residential suburb. As time went on and the city grew the character of the neighborhood would evolve to accommodate and incorporate the urban sprawl of the uptown growth of the city. This walking tour makes sense of the streets in the area today, using images to show what the streets originally looked in their first transformation from farmland, how the streetscapes changed with buildings being replaced or altered, and how the different avenues of the Upper West Side developed to the beat of their own drum.ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this productStop At: Richard Tucker Square, New York City, New YorkWe begin the tour putting the Upper West Side in its proper context within New York City's greater history of development.

This 2.5-hour walking tour meets on the steps of the Public Theater in Astor Place, across from Colonnade Row and what was the highest end residential block in the country in the 1830s, the resides of Astors, Delanos and Roosevelts. We end at the Civic Center, and the old Five Points neighborhood of "Gangs of New York" fame, the most notorious slum in New York City's history. And going from the upper class residential precinct of today's Astor Place to the miserable wretchedness of the Five Points was a top request of tourists in the 1830s, 40s and 50s. And that walk would take them straight through the city center of that day, when the finest shops, theaters, and hotels were arranged along this part of Broadway when it was a historical tether between these most estranged locales.ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this productStop At: The Public Theater, New York City, New YorkWe start across from Astor Place and the Ruins of most elite residential homes in the country in the 1830s.

This is the story of a new, truly American style of Mafia that was born in the ashes of the 19th century. Rooted in immigrant struggle and superstition, immigrant-born, American-raised children found their way to running the most powerful crime empire in the world. Fueled by ambition, greed, and the ability to transform and evolve, these packs of \wolves in hand-tailored suits, found that American streets weren't paved with gold... They had to tear those streets open to find their riches. This is a story that leaps from the broken lands of Sicily and Southern Italy, across Russia and the Ukraine, swirling through Ireland, Turkey, Cuba, Nazi Germany, and every spot in between, told amidst the cafes, tenements, night clubs, restaurants and even alleyways of Downtown New York. This is the story of the American Mafia, through the rise, the peak and the downward spiral of the 20th century. The tour starts promptly at 6pm -- 5pm from October through mid-March-- at 176 1st avenue, near E10th street outside of what used to be a 110 year old Italian restaurant and opens with a brief understanding of the delicate balance between the two worlds of the neighborhood: The respectable, honorable immigrant success stories and the ruthless thugs, protectors and shakedown artists that kept them in their clutches. The shape of a "Mafia" and its influence on everyday citizens is clearly outlined here. The story then follows the slow and steady rise of Charles "Lucky" Luciano, through the neighborhood spots that he used to frequent. The tour then follows the cafes and restaurants of the neighborhood to weave together the story of prohibition, mafia warfare, double-crossings, and a new incarnation of what it meant to be Mafia in America. The tour follows a distinct narrative through the span of the 20th century, linking together small, local stories of mid-level thugs and "businessmen" and the ways in which they tie together with the greatest Mafiosi in American histor
